It seems like 27 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 3: isn't the. 28 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 5: Bros Belt also over there, which is a much better 29 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 5: I mean, that's that one is little on the nose. 30 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:20,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, And in any event, the attack on Iran, which 31 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 3: was postponed apparently because too much of our carrier groups, 32 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 3: you know, we're busy doing regime change elsewhere are you know, 33 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 3: We're now you know it, full steam ahead towards Iran. 34 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 4: Schedule is back on track. 35 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 6: Yeah. 36 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 3: I think a lot of people felt like, oh, okay, 37 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 3: we're not going to get an Iran strike, a second 38 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 3: round of war with Iran because there's no reason to 39 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 3: do it. Like there's like they're not attacking us, so 40 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 3: we're not going to attack them. But no, I think 41 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 3: you know, we're still going to do it. 42 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 5: We'll say, Trump is in Davos right now, so literally 43 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 5: as we're speaking, we're going to break down his big 44 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 5: speech at Davos. We're going to take you through some 45 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 5: of the reactions at Davos to what's happened over the 46 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 5: you know, last several days in regard to Greenland and Canada. 47 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 5: Mark Carney, Canadian Prime Minister, obviously gave a banger of 48 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 5: a speech, so it's it's bouncing around everywhere right now. 49 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 5: Definitely caught the attention of the entire chattering class, and 50 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 5: for some interesting reasons, because it's it was I think 51 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,959 Speaker 5: grand it's fair to say, a pretty significant moment. 52 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 3: An obituary for American hegemony is what he was trying 53 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 3: to write. 54 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 6: Yeah. 55 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, So we're gonna break it down, and we also 56 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 5: have the markets opening in a bit. We're going to 57 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 5: get to that as well, because yesterday, boy, that was 58 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 5: I was rough. 59 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 6: Yeah. 60 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 3: Normally, you know, if the stock sell off, you know 61 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 3: you'll see you know, the bond market rally, or if 62 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 3: the bond market crash, as you see the stock market rally, 63 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 3: because it's all in the American sandbox. Yesterday, the world 64 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 3: was just selling everything American. 65 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 4: It was good timing for the Carney speech, we'll put 66 00:02:58,960 --> 00:02:59,399 Speaker 4: it that way. 67 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, Trump knows how to play it well. 68 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 5: Speaking of Trump, he I was at the White House 69 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,519 Speaker 5: yesterday and his briefing he had at the last. 70 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 3: Not a briefing, nothing brief about it. 71 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 4: It was a longing. 72 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 5: Yes, yeah, it was. I don't even there are no words. 73 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 5: He ran down a list of the three hundred and 74 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 5: sixty five accomplishments for three hundred accomplishments for three hundred 75 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 5: and sixty five days. 76 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 4: It was like two hours long. 77 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 3: Like, wait, you're going to do how many accomplishments? 78 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 4: Three hundred and sixty five? 79 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 3: I got stuff to do. Then. 80 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 5: Of course it was announced at the last minute, but 81 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 5: people thought he would just be going through the highlights. No, 82 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 5: he was like going bullet by bullet through the list. 83 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 5: So he answered questions from reporters towards the end of it. 84 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 3: This is after he was up till two am. Yeah, 85 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 3: because he was at the college football championship. 86 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 5: Well, we know we have like timestamps from truth Social 87 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 5: and pool reports like this man just doesn't sleep. Actually 88 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 5: a hiccup on the way to Davos last night. Late 89 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 5: last night, Air Force one had to turn around because 90 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 5: of que a minor electrical issue. The lights flashed in 91 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 5: the press cabin. 92 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 3: He left his Maga hat at home. 93 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, might have been you can't. 94 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 3: You can't speak to Davos without your Maga hat. 95 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 4: We'll see, we'll see how he shows up. 96 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 5: But anyway, we have a breakdown of all of that 97 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,679 Speaker 5: new updates from Minneapolis. Zora Mamdani went on The View 98 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 5: yesterday and Ryan, we're going to talk a little bit 99 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 5: about updates out of Israel. Answerdan, the boys are fighting 100 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 5: at Davos. Donald Trump just finished his remarks and the 101 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 5: atmosphere is reportedly nervous. That's what Politico said before he 102 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 5: got there on an overnight flight. And you know, it 103 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 5: seemed kind of low energy, like Trump has been the 104 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 5: last couple of weeks, last like forty eight hours. But 105 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 5: he ended up I think improvising in particular some moments 106 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 5: that it's just the scene at Davos has been Mark Carney. 107 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 5: We're gonna get to this in a moment. But he 108 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 5: used the word rupture to describe what's happened geopolitically. It 109 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 5: feels like Davos is the embodiment of this geopolitical Western 110 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 5: like rupture. So Trump obviously addressed Greenland, He addressed Canada, 111 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 5: He addressed all kinds of things that the White House 112 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 5: is now. He even addressed Ilhan Omar. For course, one 113 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,239 Speaker 5: reason the White House is now tweeting about Gavin Newsom 114 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 5: watching from the cuckchair, because Gavin Newsom went to Davos 115 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:23,119 Speaker 5: to undercut Trump and was standing in the corner of 116 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,559 Speaker 5: the room. So just a great morning all around. Let's 117 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 5: roll Donald Trump. First here on Greenland A one. 118 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 7: I have tremendous respect for both the people of Greenland 119 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 7: and the people of Denmark, tremendous respect. But every NATO 120 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 7: ally has an obligation to be able to defend their 121 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 7: own territory. And the fact is, no nation or a 122 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 7: group of nations is in any position to be able 123 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 7: to secure Greenland other than the United States. We're great power, 124 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 7: much greater than people even understand. I think they found 125 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 7: that out two weeks ago in Venezuela. We saw this 126 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 7: in World War two when Denmark fell to Germany after 127 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 7: just six hours of fighting and was totally unable to 128 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 7: defend either itself or Greenland. 129 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 6: So the United States was then compelled. We did it. 130 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 6: We felt an obligation to do it. 131 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 7: To send our own forces to hold the Greenland territory 132 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 7: and hold it we did at great cost and expense. 133 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 7: They didn't have a chance of getting on it, and 134 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 7: they tried. Denmark knows that. And then after the war, 135 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 7: which we won, we won it big without us. Right now, 136 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 7: you'd all be speaking German and little Japanese. 137 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 6: Perhaps After the war, we gave Greenland back to Denmark. 138 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 7: How stupid were we to do that? But we did it, 139 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 7: But we gave it back. But how ungrateful are they now? 140 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 7: So now our country and the world face much greater 141 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 7: risks than it did ever before, because of missiles, because 142 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 7: of nuclear because of weapons of warfare that I can't 143 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 7: even talk about. Two weeks ago, there saw weapons that nobody. 144 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 6: Ever heard of. 145 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 7: They weren't able to fire one shot at us. They said, 146 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 7: what happened? Everything was discombobulated. 147 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 6: They said, we've got them in. 148 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 7: Our sites, press the trigger and nothing happened. Then, for 149 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 7: so many years, we've never gotten anything except we pay 150 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 7: for NATO, and we've paid for many years until I 151 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 7: came along. We paid for, in my opinion, one hundred 152 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 7: percent of NATO because they weren't paying their bills. And 153 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 7: all we're asking for is to get Greenland, including right title. 154 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 6: And ownership, because you need the ownership to defend it. 155 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 6: You can't defend it on a lease. 156 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 7: Number one, legally, it's not defensible that way totally. And 157 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 7: number two, psychologically, who the hell wants to defend a 158 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 7: license agreement, or at least or know that they'd be 159 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 7: there for us. They're not there for us on Iceland 160 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 7: that I can tell you. I mean, our stock market 161 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 7: took the first dip yesterday because of Iceland. So Iceland's 162 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 7: already cost us a lot of money. 163 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 5: Now asked how far he would go to acquire Greenland 164 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 5: yesterday before he took off for this. 165 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 4: Flight I want to roll. 166 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 5: This was the long briefing, like two hours, where Trump 167 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 5: was going through all of the accomplishments of the first 168 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 5: three hundred and sixty five days. 169 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 4: He got asked how far he would go? This is 170 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 4: a two. 171 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 3: How far are you willing to go to acquire green. 172 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 5: You'll find out, okay, Ryan, So the last twenty four 173 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 5: hours have been well, I mean, it feels like this 174 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 5: every day, but the last twenty four hours have been 175 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 5: a whirlwind, to say the least. Trump lands and Davos 176 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 5: for the World Economic Forums annual confab in front of 177 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 5: European leaders and says this, we have more clips, by 178 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 5: the way, lest you think that was it, we have more, 179 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 5: but quick reactions to what we saw. 180 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 3: It's just so thoroughly embarrassing, like as an American as 181 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 3: a person on this planet. It's humiliating, but let's suffer 182 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,719 Speaker 3: through a little bit more of this humiliation. Trump had 183 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 3: more to say than just. 184 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 7: That the consequences of such destructive policies have been starck, 185 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 7: including lower economic growth, lower standards of living, lower birth rates, 186 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 7: more socially disruptive migration, more vulnerability to hostile foreign adversaries, 187 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:50,679 Speaker 7: and much smaller militaries. The United States cares greatly about 188 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 7: the people of Europe. 189 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 6: We really do. 190 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 7: I mean, look, I am derived from Europe, Scotland and 191 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 7: Germany one hundred percent Scotland, my mother, one hundred percent German, 192 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 7: my father, and we believe deeply in the bonds we 193 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 7: share with Europe as a civilization. 194 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 6: I want to see it do great. 195 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 7: That's why issues like energy, trade, immigration, and economic growth 196 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 7: must be central concerns to anyone who wants to see 197 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 7: a strong and united West. Because Europe and those countries 198 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 7: have to do their thing. They have to get out 199 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 7: of the culture that they've created over the last ten years. 200 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 6: It's horrible what they're doing to themselves. 201 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 7: They're destroying themselves as beautiful, beautiful places. We want strong allies, 202 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 7: not seriously weakened ones. We want Europe to be strong. 203 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 4: I am derived from Europe. 204 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 3: Yes, there you go, you just derived from Europe. Yeah. 205 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 3: So one thing of this was just this weird joke 206 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 3: that he was telling, but like this went from a 207 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 3: joke at the end of his first term to oh wait, 208 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 3: this guy's actually serious and disrupting the entire global order 209 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 3: and economy, which we'll talk about in a second, in 210 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 3: order to just switch from a lease to an ownership 211 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 3: role in Greenland. 212 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, and there's an interesting I mean, as people are 213 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 5: listening to each of these moments, he's doing something where 214 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 5: he says like, we love Canada, we love Europe, we 215 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 5: love NATO so much that we have to do this, 216 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 5: we love Greenland so much that we have to do this. 217 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 5: And so he's trying to, like he said, he's on 218 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 5: the one hand, it's this flattery and on the other 219 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 5: hand it's but hey. 220 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 3: Should we do the Canada one and then we can 221 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 3: roll in with some of the reactions. 222 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 8: Yeah. 223 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 5: Well, and I think the big theme here is that 224 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 5: and this is I actually think this is a fair assessment, 225 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 5: and it's one that people on the right would say, 226 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 5: or people in maga circles is probably a better way 227 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 5: to put it. 228 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 4: Would own up. 229 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 5: To this description of the broader theme being mafioso American leadership. 230 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 5: And the reason why people in world would say that's 231 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,439 Speaker 5: good is that it's a more honest way of doing 232 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 5: the business that the United States was going about doing anyway. 233 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 5: And at least you're being honest about it and getting 234 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 5: something out of it and projecting strength. That would be 235 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 5: the sort of maga version of it. On the other hand, 236 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 5: it's a total shakedown essentially. So let's go ahead and 237 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:19,599 Speaker 5: roll Canada. 238 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 7: For national and international security and to keep our very 239 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 7: energetic and dangerous potential enemies at bay. Is this land 240 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 7: on which we're going to build the greatest golden dome 241 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 7: ever built. 242 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 6: We're building a golden dome. 243 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 7: That's going to just by its very nature, going to 244 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 7: be defending Canada. Canada gets a lot of freebius from us, 245 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 7: by the way, they should be grateful also, But then not, 246 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:50,719 Speaker 7: I watch your Prime Minister yesterday. He wasn't so grateful. 247 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 7: They should be grateful to us. Canada lives because of 248 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 7: the United States. Remember that mark the next time you 249 00:12:59,160 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 7: make your statement. 250 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, Ryan, it's always fun to watch Trump clips with Ryan, 251 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 5: like longer ones, because he just cracks up in the background. 252 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 3: This one is like just it's all, it's it's it's 253 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 3: a typical classic like Trump It's but but there's an 254 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 3: extra layer of fury that it brings about because of 255 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 3: what it's doing to regular people in the country as 256 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 3: a result of this, and and around the world, which 257 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 3: which I want to get to, uh pretty pretty quickly. 258 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 3: You know, the show's running late because we wanted to 259 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 3: wait for Trump's why we waited for that, like we 260 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 3: knew exactly. 261 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 4: Kind of because I don't think we knew exactly the. 262 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 3: You know, the thrust of it. He didn't even know 263 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,559 Speaker 3: exactly what he was going to say, the thrust of it. 264 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 3: So he talked about Mark Carney, and I think that's 265 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 3: I think that's a good place to pivot Too's some 266 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 3: of the reaction, and then we can go back to 267 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 3: some of this other stuff. Uh So, Carnee, this is 268 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 3: going to be a longer clip, but I think it's 269 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 3: I think it's worth playing the entire thing because this 270 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 3: is a seismic speech. This is the one where Trump 271 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 3: is saying he wasn't that grateful, but this is a 272 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 3: man that could not more fully embody globalization because he 273 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 3: was a central banker in the UK and then also 274 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 3: over in Canada. Now he's the Prime Minister of Canada. 275 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 3: Yet he's giving one of the most kind of clear 276 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 3: eyed analyses of what the international order actually actually is 277 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 3: and is becoming. So let's roll Carne and I think 278 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 3: this is worth listening to the entire thing. 279 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 9: It seems that every day we're reminded that we live 280 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 9: in an era of great power rivalry, that the rules 281 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 9: based order is fading, that the strong can do what 282 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 9: they can and the weak must suffer what they must. 283 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 9: And this aphorism of Thucydides is presented as inevitable as 284 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 9: the natural logic of international relations reasserting itself. And faced 285 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 9: with this logic, there is a strong tendency for countries 286 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 9: to go along, to get along, to accommodate, to avoid trouble, 287 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 9: to hope that compliance will buy safety. 288 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 3: Well it won't. So what are our options? 289 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 9: For decades, countries like Canada prospered under what we call 290 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 9: the rules based international order. We joined its institutions, we 291 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 9: praised its principles, We benefited from its predictability, and because 292 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 9: of that we could pursue values based foreign policies under 293 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 9: its protection. We knew the story of the international rules 294 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 9: based order was partially false, that the strongest would exempt 295 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 9: themselves when convenient, that trade rules were enforced asymmetrically, and 296 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 9: we knew that international law applied with varying rigor depending 297 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 9: on the identity. 298 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 3: Of the accused or the victim. This fiction was useful. 299 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 9: An American hegemony, in particular, helped provide public goods, open 300 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 9: sea lanes, a stable financial system, collective security, and support 301 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 9: for frameworks for resolving disputes. So we placed the sign 302 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 9: in the window, We participated in the rituals, and we 303 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 9: largely avoided calling out the gaps between rhetoric and reality. 304 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 3: This bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. 305 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 9: We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition. 306 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 9: Over the past two decades, a series of crises in finance, health, energy, 307 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,359 Speaker 9: and geopolitics have laid bare the risks. 308 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 3: Of extreme global integration. 309 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 9: But more recently, great powers have begun using economic integration 310 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 9: as weapons. Tariffs's leverage, financial infrastructure is coercion, supply chains 311 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 9: as vulnerabilities to be exploited. You cannot live within the 312 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 9: lie of mutual benefit through integration when integration becomes the 313 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 9: source of your subordination. 314 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 3: All right. So one of the reactions has been, well, 315 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 3: that's pretty interesting that you're willing to say that the 316 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 3: International Order was kind of a partial lie, but you 317 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 3: were on the receiving end of some of the goodies, 318 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 3: so you were okay with all of this injustice setting 319 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 3: out all aside. It's from there he goes on to say, Okay, 320 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 3: what do we do from here? And what he says 321 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 3: is we're going to have to hedge our risk, and 322 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 3: the risk is the United States. Basically we can hedge 323 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 3: it alone and all be self sufficient kind of castles, 324 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 3: but that's going to make us poorer and make a 325 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 3: less stable world. He's like, let's all get together, those 326 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 3: of us who want to team up and hedge our 327 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 3: risks together. Whether that's and he talks about doing business 328 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 3: with China they just let in what sixty thousand of 329 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:25,719 Speaker 3: their cars, or doing business with Europe, or free anybody 330 00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:29,360 Speaker 3: else who's interested in free trade over tariffs and not 331 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 3: using kind of the International Order as a weapon against 332 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 3: each other, team up against basically the United States. So 333 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 3: he's like, he's arguing Let's not do just our own 334 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 3: individual castles. Let's do network of castles against this like 335 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 3: completely unpredictable behemoth beneath us. 336 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 5: Sort of arguing that, well, I mean, he this is 337 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 5: like Ryan was saying, this was like. 338 00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 4: A builder Berg guy, you and climate envoy in. 339 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,959 Speaker 5: I think, actually Trump and Mark Karney don't disagree on 340 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 5: something fundamental, which is that this is a rupture of 341 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 5: the international rules based order. Trump is bragging about that, 342 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 5: Carney is lamenting it, and I think that much. I mean, 343 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 5: it's almost like he's late to this diagnosis, to be honest, 344 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 5: And what's difficult for the Carneies of the world is 345 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 5: that nobody is happy with And I actually think I'm 346 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 5: curious what you make of this. There is a pretty 347 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 5: good argument that what was what they decry Trump doing. 348 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:38,439 Speaker 5: Using international order as a cudgel, using tariffs as a 349 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 5: tool of manipulation, all of the like, using Western hegemony 350 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 5: to be a bully, all of those things are already happening, 351 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 5: behaving like mafiosa. Trump is being more honest about it. 352 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 5: Mark Karney is pretending that that was never the case, 353 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 5: and that what he really wants from the perch of 354 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 5: the world Economic Forum and Builderberg is just the rules 355 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 5: based international order. He wants the pretense, and there may 356 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 5: be some value to the pretense just on its own, 357 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 5: but he doesn't want the substance of it. He wants 358 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 5: the pretense and not the substance. And what I think 359 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 5: the rupture is, He's correct about the rupture point. Trump 360 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 5: is correct about the rupture point. What he thinks it is, 361 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 5: it's the end of the pretense ultimately. 362 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's saying his point is a little bit more 363 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 3: nuanced in an interesting way. He's saying, it was always 364 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 3: a lie, but there was value in the lie, yeah, right, right, 365 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 3: the value. There was some restraining ability of the lie, 366 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 3: like the myth, which is why I put our sign 367 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 3: in the window. We all believed, we all pretended to 368 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 3: believe in it in the hopes that the lie could 369 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 3: eventually become reality. Now he's saying that's just never going 370 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 3: to happen. What the near term. It's interesting the US 371 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 3: is choosing this moment like the US was probably on 372 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 3: its way out of hegemony either way at some point 373 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 3: the next who knows when the US is choosing this 374 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,679 Speaker 3: moment to do it, or Trump is choosing it on 375 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 3: behalf of the United States. 376 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:12,199 Speaker 6: It's not. 377 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 3: But it's not totally clear any doing it over Greenland. 378 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 3: It's not entirely clear that we're ready for this, like 379 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 3: we have deindustrialized ourselves. Fully, we have not reindustrialized. Trump 380 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 3: thinks if we just jump and go for it, that 381 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 3: will land on our feet. So far we're just falling. 382 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 3: We can put up a one here. The markets shed 383 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 3: like one and a half one and a half points 384 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 3: and the bond market crashed as well, which is which 385 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 3: is unusual. You know, normally they don't both go at 386 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 3: the same time. Uh, the effect on the effect for 387 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 3: regular people and by you know people's four one k's 388 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 3: and all this other stuff you know that matters, But 389 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 3: like effect on regular people is is brutal. So let's 390 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:02,679 Speaker 3: look at let's look at a nine here and you 391 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,199 Speaker 3: just read it. Just days after mortgage rates hit a 392 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 3: three year low, sparking a near instant surge in applications. 393 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 3: This is applications for mortgages. Fresh trade tensions are threatening 394 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,159 Speaker 3: to undo that progress. Rates on a thirty year mortgage 395 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 3: jumped fourteen basis points to an average of six point 396 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 3: two one percent on Tuesday morning. According to Mortgage News 397 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 3: Daily can put up a ten which shows just graphically 398 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 3: like how brutal this is. So if you're just listening 399 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,199 Speaker 3: to this and you're not and you're not looking at 400 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 3: the image, on January ninth, you see a collapse in 401 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 3: mortgage rates, and that's what then gets people thinking, oh 402 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 3: my god, finally we can move, we can sell the house, 403 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 3: we can buy a house. Like that, maybe this real 404 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 3: estate market is is unfreezing. What happened on January ninth 405 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 3: is that Trump ordered the Treasury Department to start and 406 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 3: GSS to start buying a ton of mortgage backed securities 407 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 3: to make up for the amount of mortgage back securities 408 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 3: at the FED just kind of rolling back onto the 409 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 3: market as it's unwinding some of its quantitative easing. So 410 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 3: what that does so you basically a bank makes a mortgage, 411 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 3: then they cut it up into securities and they sell 412 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 3: it into the market. And if the federal government is 413 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 3: coming in and buying those securities, that means that the 414 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 3: mortgages can be sold at a lower interest rate. And 415 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 3: so you're pumping taxpayer money into the market to push 416 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 3: down mortgage rates to unfreeze the real estate market, which 417 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 3: I think is actually a good idea, like this is good, 418 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 3: like people need, we need to unfreeze this real estate market. 419 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 3: So Trump does that on January ninth, and it starts 420 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 3: to work. Good for you, Trump, the guys like doing 421 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 3: his job. Then what happens that's a Friday. What happens 422 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 3: on Sunday night? Jerome Powell announces that Trump is trying 423 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 3: to prosecute him, and so immediately the markets go haywire again. 424 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 3: And then what does he do? And you can put 425 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 3: up you put up a eleven here, this is about 426 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,719 Speaker 3: the mortgage backed security thing. Then what did you do? 427 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 3: He says that he's going to put tariffs on everybody 428 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 3: who does any business with Greenland or whatever nil until 429 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 3: Greenland is just handed over to him. And then mortgage 430 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 3: rates spike right back to where they were when Trump 431 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 3: intervened in the market to try to make them affordable. 432 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 3: The only difference is now we've spent god only knows 433 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 3: how many billions of dollars in this failed effort to 434 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 3: push down mortgage rates, and now the taxpayer owns all 435 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 3: of these mortgage back securities, which you know, if the 436 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 3: economy spins out of control, means even deeper blot on 437 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 3: our balance sheet. At the same time, this Danish pension 438 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 3: fund announced that it was selling off all of its treasures. 439 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 3: You can put up a twelve here, which contributed to 440 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 3: the interest rates going up. This morning, Bessent was asked 441 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 3: about this at a press conference in Davos. Let me 442 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 3: see if I can find his exact quote. Is incredible, yes, so, 443 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:18,360 Speaker 3: Bessont said, quote Denmark's investment in US Treasury bonds, like 444 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 3: Denmark itself is irrelevant. That's that's It's like, okay, Well 445 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:29,680 Speaker 3: maybe to you because you're like rich af Yeah, you're 446 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 3: a billionaire. You're not to buy a house or sell 447 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 3: a house. You're not struggling. You don't hear the American economy. 448 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 5: He did just sell his soybean form, so he's he 449 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 5: sold off his so he is he does he found. 450 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 5: He also said, by the way, I don't know if 451 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,959 Speaker 5: you caught this, he was talking about Gavin Newsom. This 452 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 5: is a quote from Scott Bessnt this morning. I guess 453 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 5: it would be afternoon in Switzerland time, but he said, quote, 454 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 5: I think it's very very ironic that Newsom, who strikes 455 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 5: me as Patrick Bateman meets Sparkle beach Ken. Maybe the 456 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 5: only Californian who knows less about economics than Kamala Harris. 457 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 5: He's here this week with his billionaire sugar daddy Alex Soros. 458 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 5: The White House, as I mentioned, also proceeded on its 459 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 5: rapid response Twitter account to say that Newsome they posted 460 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 5: a picture of him watching Trump's speech in the back 461 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 5: of the room, was in the cuck corner chair. 462 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 3: Amazing boy Winter so Besant, who was telling you that 463 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 3: Denmark's purchase of treasuries is completely relevant at a five 464 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 3: he also delivered another nice little Marie Antoinette moment. Let's 465 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,400 Speaker 3: roll this a five side. 466 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 10: We're going to give guidance at some point to see 467 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 10: what is a mom and pop that someone maybe your 468 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,840 Speaker 10: parents for their retirement at about five ten twelve homes. 469 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 10: So we don't want to push the mom and pops out, 470 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 10: We just want to push everyone else. 471 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 3: So even when Trump is doing something populist and cool, 472 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 3: which is he's trying to push investors out of the 473 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 3: home buying market like black Rock and these others that 474 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,640 Speaker 3: are coming in and trying to buy up all these homes, 475 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 3: they're like, well, how are you going to define this 476 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 3: best and says, well, you know your parents might own 477 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,360 Speaker 3: five ten, twelve homes. They might, they might. You don't 478 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 3: want to push them out of the market. That's just 479 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,160 Speaker 3: a mom and pop buying twelve homes for your retirement. 480 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 6: Yeah. 481 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 3: Also, wait, now, your parents are responsible for their kids retirement. Oh, 482 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 3: it's one thing like high school college to some extent retirement. 483 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,439 Speaker 5: Well, I think what they're my assumption on that is 484 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 5: what they mean is at the Gen X and millennials 485 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 5: who are about to inherit property from boomers, that would 486 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 5: be a retirement nest egg because they don't own property. 487 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 5: And so if your retirement is tied up in a house, 488 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 5: not necessarily great financial planning. 489 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 4: But I assume that's what he was referring to. 490 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 3: So if you do own five, ten or twelve houses, 491 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 3: then you're going to be taken care of by besant. 492 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 3: Let's also roll a fourteen. Another cabinet member, Brooke Rollins, 493 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 3: was criticized for telling people they can like totally survive 494 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 3: just fine on a couple dollars a day. She went 495 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 3: back to it and says she did a bunch of 496 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 3: modeling and stands by it. Let's roll a fourteen here. 497 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 11: We had run almost a thousand simulations and between three 498 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 11: and four dollars is a fair number if you can 499 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 11: have access to that food. So just about an hour ago, 500 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 11: I saw new numbers that were run. A full day 501 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 11: meaning three full square meals and a snack is about 502 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 11: fifteen dollars and sixty four cents. Fifteen dollars and sixty 503 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 11: four cents. 504 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 6: That's all three. 505 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 4: Meals and a snack. 506 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 3: And a snack and a snack. I mean it's true. 507 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 3: Like if you go to Costco and you got the 508 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 3: massive bag of rice totally, now, I don't know who's 509 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 3: going to pay the Costco membership because that's practically a 510 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 3: dollar a day just for that, and you just ate 511 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 3: rice for three meals a day. Yeah, and your snack 512 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 3: would be the free samples in Costco. But yeah, it 513 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 3: doesn't work because you have to pay the membership. Meanwhile, 514 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 3: she's just cut a bunch of food stamps, so making 515 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 3: it even more difficult. So yeah, she wants to make 516 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 3: sure that people that the government, the administration wants to 517 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 3: make sure people who own twelve houses aren't unfairly penalized 518 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 3: by their their rule making. But as long as you 519 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 3: have fifteen bucks, then you can get you know, three 520 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 3: meals a day in a snack like, what on earth? 521 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 3: Kind of government? 522 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:44,640 Speaker 4: Is this so interesting midterm strategy? Let's roll so good? 523 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 3: This works for them? 524 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. 525 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 5: This is so CNBC has the markets rebounding today. I 526 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 5: mean you can you can see that, but they say 527 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 5: they connect it to Trump telling everyone at Davos that 528 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 5: quote he would not use force to acquire Greenland, easing 529 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 5: a conc and that has rattled markets and cost a 530 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 5: flight from dollar based assets. Ray Dalio raised some eyebrows 531 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 5: with these comments from Davos that we wanted to roll 532 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 5: for everyone. Obviously Dahalio of Bridgewater, This is it's sort 533 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 5: of similar to the Carney clip that it's an interesting 534 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 5: You use the word seminal. I think that's a good 535 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 5: word for what Carney said. Here's Ray Dalio kind of 536 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 5: reacting to what's happened in the last week or so, 537 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 5: maybe even just the last forty eight hours. The headline 538 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 5: is going to be that the and this is the 539 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 5: one that c NBC used, quote the monetary order is 540 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 5: breaking down. 541 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 4: Throw the clip. 542 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 12: Let's step back from the sensational and be clear about 543 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 12: what I mean. The monetary order is breaking down? Okay, 544 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 12: what I mean by the monetary order is that fiat 545 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 12: currencies as and dead as a storehold of wealth is 546 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 12: not being held by central banks in the same way, and. 547 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 6: That there was a change. 548 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 12: The biggest market to move last year was the gold market, 549 00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 12: far better than the tech markets and so on, and 550 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 12: the US markets underperformed foreign markets because of the fact 551 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 12: you could see it in the numbers of the central 552 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 12: banks and so on. So let's just look at the 553 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 12: fact that on the other side of trade deficits and 554 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 12: trade wars are capital and capital wars and so as. 555 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 12: We're looking at that, and you reported what the stock 556 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 12: market and so on, but you didn't report that the 557 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 12: gold market is also up three. But I'm saying is 558 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 12: you look at what is happening and why it's happening 559 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 12: and who's buying it. So let's just take a moment 560 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 12: on that capital war issue. Okay, we know that both 561 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 12: the holders of US stollar denominated debt at which is money, 562 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 12: and those who need it the United States are worried 563 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 12: about each other, right, So if you have other countries 564 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 12: who are holding it and they're worried about each other 565 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 12: and we're producing a lot of it, that's a big issue, right, 566 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 12: So you have to explain what is going on with 567 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 12: Fiat currencies generally speaking. And now if you take the conflicts, 568 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 12: you can't ignore the possibility the capital wars. In other words, 569 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 12: maybe there's not the same inclination to buy US debt 570 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 12: and so what we at least need to talk about 571 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 12: those possibilities and find out who is buying and selling 572 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 12: what that is behind these market. 573 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 4: Movements, right, And that's basically what you were saying. 574 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, so we're entering it's going to be 575 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 3: you know, what's the Chinese proverb, may you live in 576 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 3: interesting times? Yes, getting that these are going to be 577 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 3: these are going to be interesting times. This again, the 578 00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 3: US chose the time of this fight in a and 579 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 3: I am quite skeptical that we are prepared for it. 580 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 4: I just want to say, these people all suck. I 581 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 4: mean they all suck. Everyone sucks. 582 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 5: Every part of this sucks, and it's the reason they 583 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 5: don't have them moral I'm sorry, I just don't. I 584 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 5: can't give moral high ground to Mark Carney and Gavin 585 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 5: Newsom on this, or to a lot of Trump's critics 586 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 5: on this. I don't think anybody has the moral high 587 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 5: ground because the reason we know this, but the reason 588 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,920 Speaker 5: Donald Trump is president of the United States again is 589 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 5: that the system is not working. This is not working 590 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 5: for average Americans. If you ask people in Canada, that 591 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 5: probably tell you the same thing. You ask people in 592 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 5: the UK, they'll tell you the system isn't working for 593 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 5: average Brits. It's all broken and they fucking broke it. 594 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 5: These people broke it and now they're though they want 595 00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 5: us to trust them to fix it, and we don't 596 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 5: really have any other option. 597 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. I started in politics fighting against globalization. Yeah, in 598 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 3: the late nineteen nineties, early two thousands, I didn't know 599 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 3: that Donald Trump would be the ally that would take 600 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 3: us into the castle and deliver us this victory. 601 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,879 Speaker 4: Yes, it tastes so sweet, doesn't it sure does. 602 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, disaster disaster when we I mean, every Davos feels 603 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 5: the same, It feels like the exact same thing. But 604 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 5: this one will probably if you're if you're looking for 605 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,959 Speaker 5: turning point moments in the history of Davos, the extent 606 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,399 Speaker 5: will remember this one as something on its own. It's 607 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,399 Speaker 5: probably as I think Carney is right, and Trump would 608 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 5: probably agree with him, that this is a moment of 609 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 5: rupture and that this is a we've entered a new era, 610 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 5: which we probably arguably entered it in twenty sixteen, but 611 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 5: maybe not to your point that Trump didn't have the 612 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,120 Speaker 5: same power and will that he seems. 613 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 4: To have now. 614 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, and the opponents of globalization, we're arguing that the 615 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 3: chief problems with it was that it was driving down 616 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 3: wages for people all over the world, like the race 617 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 3: to the bottom, when when it came to breaking unions 618 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 3: hurt the workers in third world countries, and then it 619 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 3: also hurt the middle class back in the United States. 620 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 3: It was undermining democracy and sovereignty, that these globalized institutions 621 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 3: were unaccountable to regular people, and also it was destroying 622 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 3: the planet on which we rest. So I'm not so 623 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 3: sure that Trump holds any of those values, whether it 624 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 3: comes to dignity for workers, sovereignty for countries, or respect 625 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 3: for the planet. So, you know, Trump may have defeated globalization, 626 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:46,359 Speaker 3: but what replaces it could be a much darker set 627 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:47,280 Speaker 3: of forces. 628 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,280 Speaker 4: We'll be covering all of it in near future. 629 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 5: Will Let's turn to Donald Trump marking his first year 630 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 5: back in office and take. 631 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 4: A look at the polling. 632 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 5: We mentioned this earlier, but Donald Trump gave a Ryan 633 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 5: was referring to it as a longing, because it's not. 634 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 4: It wasn't a briefing. It was a longing at the 635 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 4: White House yesterday. I was there for this. 636 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 5: Donald Trump announced that the last minute the White House, 637 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 5: and as the last minute, that he would be joining 638 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 5: the press briefing that day. And let's just say it 639 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 5: was all Donald Trump for what like two hours. It 640 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 5: went on forever. He was reading off a list of 641 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 5: three hundred and sixty five accomplishments that the White House 642 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 5: handed out to reporters ahead of time, a stapled kind 643 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 5: of packet of three hundred and sixty five accomplishments for 644 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 5: three hundred and sixty five days. Obviously, Trump was there 645 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:37,240 Speaker 5: to mark his for one year anniversary back in office. 646 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 5: Was January twentieth, so it was exactly year to the 647 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:42,959 Speaker 5: day since his second inauguration. And friend of the show 648 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 5: Philip Wegman from Real Clear Politics got this question, and 649 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:47,760 Speaker 5: let's take a listen. 650 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: You promised during your second au girl, to always put 651 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:51,800 Speaker 1: America first. 652 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 6: I'm curious, how. 653 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 1: Would you winning the Nobel Peace Prize improve the lives 654 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,320 Speaker 1: of average, everyday Americans? 655 00:36:58,360 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 3: Why is this pricely so important? 656 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 7: It wouldn't improve the lives of any What improved the 657 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 7: lives of people are people that are living. I saved 658 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 7: probably tens of millions of lives in the wars. 659 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 6: You know, if you add up the numbers. 660 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,440 Speaker 7: Just just if you look at if you look at 661 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 7: any one of those wars, you're talking about millions of people. 662 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 6: You multiply times eight. 663 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,879 Speaker 7: But when you look at India and Pakistan, that could 664 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,400 Speaker 7: have been ten, fifteen, twenty million people could have been 665 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 7: more than that. 666 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 6: So I saved millions of people. So that to me 667 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 6: is the big thing. 668 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 4: So that question comes amidst polling. 669 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,319 Speaker 5: We can put the CNBC he or this NBC News 670 00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 5: tearshet up on the screen that shows Don Trump actually 671 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 5: struggling on marks from voters when it comes to the economy. 672 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 4: So just reading a little bit from this report quote. 673 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 5: Trump closed out his first term in twenty twenty with 674 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 5: majorities approving of how he handled the economy, even as 675 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 5: he went on to lose the election of Biden. 676 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 4: But they continue to say. 677 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 5: During the first few months of Trump's current term, his 678 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 5: approval rating on the economy hovered in the mid forties, 679 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,320 Speaker 5: though it has since dropped several points. This piece notes 680 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,440 Speaker 5: in AP at NORC survey conducted January eight through eleven 681 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,800 Speaker 5: found thirty seven percent of Americans approve of how Trump 682 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,720 Speaker 5: is handling the economy, while a Reuter's ZIPSO survey conducted 683 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 5: January twelve through thirteen found his economic approval rating at 684 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,320 Speaker 5: thirty four percent, while thirty percent approved of his handling 685 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 5: of inflation. The Wall Street Journal found those ratings slightly higher, 686 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,839 Speaker 5: forty four percent approval on the economy and forty one 687 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 5: percent on inflation and rising prices. 688 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 4: I wouldn't even call that slightly higher. 689 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,400 Speaker 5: That's a pretty big difference between the Journal, which is 690 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 5: saying forty four percent approval on the economy in thirty 691 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 5: four from Reuters thirty seven from AP. That's a pretty 692 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:39,200 Speaker 5: big gap. It seems like the Journal poll might be 693 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 5: the outlier on that Ryan. It's where Republicans think he's 694 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:46,439 Speaker 5: most vulnerable, where they think they're most vulnerable going into 695 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:47,240 Speaker 5: the midterm cycle. 696 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 4: Is that again? 697 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 5: He's out at Davos today, He's talking about Greenland, he's 698 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 5: talking about Canada, and they are begging the White House 699 00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 5: to focus on quote affordability, which Trump what is he 700 00:38:58,760 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 5: called now a hoax. 701 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 4: They're begging. 702 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,400 Speaker 5: They're doing everything they can to try to get the 703 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 5: White House's attention on the economy. And that's actually why 704 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:09,800 Speaker 5: Trump is going to Davos. He was supposed to be 705 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 5: giving a big speech on the economy, but now it's 706 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 5: going to be heavily dominated by Greenland, the big picture, 707 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:17,919 Speaker 5: abstract question of hegemony and war. 708 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,920 Speaker 3: And we're going to talk about this in the next segment. 709 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 3: But the assault on Greenland is hurting the American economy. 710 00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 3: It is the thing that, combined with trying to prosecute 711 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 3: the Fed chair, that is driving the stock market sell 712 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 3: off and driving mortgage rates up, driving interest rates up, 713 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 3: driving uncertainty in the economy. We'll show some charts. We 714 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,439 Speaker 3: can get into that later. So it's not just that 715 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 3: people are hurting and he's refusing to focus on their 716 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 3: the economic pain that they're feeling and trying to make 717 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 3: it better. It's not just that, it's that the adventures 718 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 3: that he's having around the world are making it even worse. 719 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 3: Sod so like the whole thing feeds into itself and 720 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,440 Speaker 3: then all day long we're like, you know, bracing for 721 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 3: the next human rights abuse to come out of Minneapolis 722 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 3: or now now they're in Portland and Lewiston, Maine. Because 723 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 3: that's what the whole country was demanding that we do. 724 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 3: It send ice into Maine to start rounding people up. 725 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,400 Speaker 3: And so we're just expecting to see like people getting 726 00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,919 Speaker 3: dragged out of their cars, a woman shot in Minneapolis, 727 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:30,880 Speaker 3: like instead of what he said he was going to 728 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 3: do when he was elected, which is get prices down. 729 00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 3: I guess that's what he said he was going to do. 730 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 6: Well. 731 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,720 Speaker 5: Actually, on that note, let's put these immigration pull numbers 732 00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:43,839 Speaker 5: up on the screen before this is to the point 733 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,719 Speaker 5: that Ryan was just making. More from this NBC report, 734 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 5: they say Trump's aggressive promises and immigration and border security 735 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,919 Speaker 5: where a centerpiece of his campaign too, but Americans broad 736 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 5: ratings on his handling of immigration in particular have declined 737 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,919 Speaker 5: since he took office. Pulling last month from Fox and AP, 738 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,840 Speaker 5: Nork still found Trump with a slim majority approval rating 739 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:04,799 Speaker 5: on border security, but he fares worse when respondents are 740 00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:10,319 Speaker 5: asked about immigration as a separate issue. And right to 741 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 5: those of us who follow this and probably a lot 742 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 5: of our listeners and viewers, what is happening in Minneapolis 743 00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 5: and cities around the country, and the Trump administration's immigration 744 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 5: crackdown is not exactly surprising. I mean, I won't I'm 745 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 5: not surprised at all by what we're seeing. But if 746 00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,760 Speaker 5: you heard Donald Trump out on the campaign trail talking 747 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 5: about mass deportations and just returning to some border security 748 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:43,880 Speaker 5: and the other option is Kamala Harris and immigration is 749 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:47,759 Speaker 5: something you care about, it might not have been obvious 750 00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 5: that immigrant, his approach the immigration issue was going to 751 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 5: look like this exactly that it was going to be. 752 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 5: And so I think you know to the extent that 753 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 5: he's struggling on this. Here's NBC News writs quote. Trump's 754 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 5: approval on immigration across a handful of polls conducted by 755 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 5: CBSU GO, Fox's a quidipek in the final month of 756 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 5: twenty twenty five came in around the mid forties, so 757 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 5: higher than the economy well. The Wall Street Journal poll 758 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 5: came in at forty eight percent, higher again, and early 759 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 5: January polling from CNN and AP NORK conducted largely after 760 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 5: an ICE officer fatally shot a woman in Minneapolis, found 761 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 5: Trump's approval ratings on immigration at forty two percent and 762 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:29,759 Speaker 5: thirty eight percent, respectively, But he was hanging over that 763 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 5: fifty percent mark a lot of points during the year prior, 764 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,799 Speaker 5: and so it's a little bit of a slump right 765 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 5: now for him. And I wonder if that's the explanation 766 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 5: that there's an expectation versus reality gap of people being 767 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,920 Speaker 5: uncomfortable with what the enforcement level looks like from the 768 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:45,799 Speaker 5: Trump administration. 769 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think this is one of those shocking 770 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 3: versus surprising things because I had to have the privilege 771 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:55,400 Speaker 3: of getting to be on this show. I was getting 772 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 3: my news about what Trump was going to do from 773 00:42:57,239 --> 00:43:00,719 Speaker 3: you and Sager, and so not surprised, and you know, 774 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,960 Speaker 3: watch his rallies and he talks a lot about immigration, 775 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 3: and so I'm not surprised that he's doing this crackdown. 776 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,919 Speaker 3: The way that they're carrying out is still shocking, even 777 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 3: if you even if you expect it to come, Like 778 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 3: just to see these thugs roaming American streets behaving the 779 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,760 Speaker 3: way they are is just shocking, shocking to the American conscience. 780 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 3: His papers Please mentality being brought from Germany over to 781 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 3: over to the United States and being foisted on lots 782 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 3: of American citizens, it's just shocking. So it makes sense 783 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,360 Speaker 3: though when people say, well, I approve of his handling 784 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 3: of the border because like the border is like secure, 785 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:46,160 Speaker 3: like we're not We're not seeing like the waves of 786 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 3: people come across like we did in the Biden administration. 787 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,920 Speaker 3: But oh, immigration overall, this this thing where you've got 788 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 3: these masked ICE agents thoroughly disrespecting the Bill of Rights, 789 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 3: the thing that you know, the Right even itself was 790 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 3: warning about for decades. So we're going to have these 791 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 3: armed federal agents that are going to go around asking 792 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:11,760 Speaker 3: you for your papers and disrespecting your civil liberties like that, 793 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:15,799 Speaker 3: that combined with the you can you can't buy a 794 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 3: home prices aren't coming down, you know, like that I 795 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 3: think is contributing to his like extraordinary unpopularity. 796 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 5: So speaking of ICE in particular, NBC notes that quote 797 00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 5: pulling from Quinnipiac found fifty seven percent of registered voters 798 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 5: disapproved of how ICE is enforcing immigration laws broadly, So 799 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 5: that's a higher number than one you're asking about Trump. 800 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 5: And CNN found that fifty one percent of adults said 801 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 5: ICE enforcement is making American cities less safe. Well, thirty 802 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 5: one percent said the enforcement is making cities safer. 803 00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,720 Speaker 3: So pretty hard to get a plus twenty on any 804 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 3: contentious issue in the United States. 805 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 5: Well, and I'll actually add, in a country that is 806 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:58,360 Speaker 5: fairly supportive both of legal immigration but also of enforcement, 807 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:02,120 Speaker 5: right is support of in the abstract at least of 808 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 5: mass deportations. That actually, I think is one of the 809 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:10,239 Speaker 5: things that media folks in DC were surprised over the 810 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,920 Speaker 5: last year or two, especially during the campaign season. You'll 811 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 5: remember this to see showing up in polls a majority 812 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 5: of Americans saying, yeah, mass deportations, we do support mass deportations. 813 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:24,200 Speaker 5: Not surprising if you look at the numbers of the 814 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 5: largest surge and immigration since Ellis Island. As David Lee 815 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 5: and Hurt wrote at The New York Times, that you're 816 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:31,840 Speaker 5: going to get a response like that from the public. 817 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:35,320 Speaker 5: But to see to when you ask about ice in particular, 818 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 5: this was a January poll too. It wasn't a December pool, 819 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 5: so January as all of this is going on January thirteenth. 820 00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:46,399 Speaker 5: That's a question that Republicans in purple districts, and those 821 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:48,359 Speaker 5: are the ones that are on the bubble of some 822 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 5: of them, even if they're going to run again. But 823 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 5: those are the Republicans that are going to get a 824 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:55,440 Speaker 5: whole lot of questions about this sort of thing. And 825 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 5: to the point, I mean, I was watching Trump's entrew 826 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 5: with Katie Pavlich on News Nation last night that he 827 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 5: wants to be remembered as a great president. That's if 828 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 5: you have already fifty seven percent of voter saying they 829 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,720 Speaker 5: disapprove of how Ice is enforcing immigration laws, you're leaning 830 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 5: into that. 831 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:13,760 Speaker 4: That's definitely legacy stuff. 832 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's without and I have time with this before. 833 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 3: That's without a serious external crisis hitting him. You can 834 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 3: sure know that the California fires kind of started before 835 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,160 Speaker 3: he was president. I wouldn't even count those. Right, We're 836 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 3: about to get an ice storm all across the southeast, 837 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 3: which could be the like basically the first major external 838 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 3: crisis hitting him. He hasn't he hasn't really had. If 839 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,160 Speaker 3: you go through the history of the presidents, you get, 840 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:46,759 Speaker 3: like you know, George W. Bush, you got Katrina or 841 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 3: nine to eleven, these external shocks that kind of you 842 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 3: then either have you respond to them and you are 843 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,400 Speaker 3: heralded for your response, or you or you break in 844 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:04,759 Speaker 3: the face of them, or you know, it exposes some 845 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:09,320 Speaker 3: of the problems that you like that are inherent in 846 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:12,000 Speaker 3: in your approach to the presidency. He hasn't had any 847 00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:17,799 Speaker 3: of that. He's had stable prices, He's had an unemployment 848 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:22,800 Speaker 3: rate that was that was declining, coming in a fairly 849 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:29,400 Speaker 3: strong economy that by just giving body blow after body 850 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:33,279 Speaker 3: blow to it with his tariffs are on, tariffs are 851 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:35,960 Speaker 3: off of prosecuting the Fed. I'm doing this like he 852 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 3: has like single handedly rattled a decent economy. But otherwise 853 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:43,319 Speaker 3: there hasn't he like the only external shock has been 854 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:47,600 Speaker 3: Trump himself. And you know, we'll see how the ice 855 00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 3: storm unfolds. Maybe that will end up being you know, 856 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 3: catastrophic enough to get his attention, but probably not. 857 00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:58,360 Speaker 5: We have actually his foreign policy numbers as well. We 858 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,319 Speaker 5: can put B five up on the screen. This is 859 00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:03,359 Speaker 5: more from that NBC report, which just took a look 860 00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 5: at all of the recent polling. Was a very helpful 861 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 5: thing to do as we hit the one year mark. 862 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 5: Overall quote has approval rating on foreign policy has hybrid 863 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,319 Speaker 5: around forty percent in recent polling, a slight decline from 864 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:14,960 Speaker 5: the mid forties at the start of his term. More broadly, 865 00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 5: a late OCTOBERNBC News poll found that fifty three percent 866 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 5: of registered voters said as administration has fallen short of 867 00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:23,359 Speaker 5: their expectations on foreign policy, well forty four percent said 868 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 5: it's lived up to expectations, and a new CNN poll 869 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,759 Speaker 5: found fifty seven percent of adults think that Trump's foreign 870 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:32,919 Speaker 5: policy decisions have hurt America's standing in the world, while 871 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:38,400 Speaker 5: thirty one percent said they've helped. Now, Ryan, I remember 872 00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 5: a lot in the first Trump term, polling going one direction, 873 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 5: media narratives going in one direction, Russia being a good example, 874 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:49,040 Speaker 5: immigration actually being another really good example. This feels very 875 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:53,319 Speaker 5: similar to what happened when the kids in Cage's narrative exploded. 876 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:56,440 Speaker 5: What that was like the summer of twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, 877 00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 5: somewmer around there, and what happening, or what at least 878 00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 5: what ended up happening. 879 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 6: Then. 880 00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 5: Obviously his term ended with COVID, but his approval ratings 881 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:09,320 Speaker 5: before COVID hit the economy was pretty strong. 882 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 4: His approval ratings. 883 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:14,359 Speaker 5: Were okay, And it shouldn't be taken as licensed by 884 00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:17,960 Speaker 5: Democrats to go back. And it's interesting because you're seeing 885 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:20,640 Speaker 5: the whole abolish ice and you and I disagree on this, 886 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 5: but you're seeing zoa Mumdanni. We have this later in 887 00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 5: the show, him talking about abolish Ice, and it's not 888 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 5: just about immigration, it's about issues across the board. He 889 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:33,399 Speaker 5: benefits a lot from the reaction from Democrats. It's not 890 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:37,400 Speaker 5: this polling isn't an approval rating, Like disapproving with Trump 891 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 5: doesn't disapproving of Trump doesn't equate to approving of a 892 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 5: particular dem policy or a particular reaction. 893 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:47,239 Speaker 3: Well, see, it might end up being different this time 894 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:51,960 Speaker 3: because in twenty eighteen, there was kids in cages and 895 00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,360 Speaker 3: the kids were not being kids were being treated terribly, 896 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:59,320 Speaker 3: and there was this child separation policy that was new. 897 00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:03,640 Speaker 3: Obama had put families in cages, had it didn't have 898 00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:06,799 Speaker 3: a child separation policy, and we hit Obama for it. 899 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:09,400 Speaker 3: So don't get out of the get get out of 900 00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 3: here with. 901 00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 4: Your media at large, I would say, did. 902 00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:16,319 Speaker 3: Not exactly media large, yes, but me, you guys count 903 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,480 Speaker 3: on this guy and ya having boats. We were we 904 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 3: like worked with some brick part reporters at the time 905 00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:24,840 Speaker 3: because Breitbart at the time not a fan of the 906 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:26,840 Speaker 3: way that the immigrants migrants were being treated down on 907 00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 3: the border. They've kind of dropped some of that coverage 908 00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:37,239 Speaker 3: since then. But so at the time, the abolish Ice 909 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:40,799 Speaker 3: movement was a kind of way to try to take 910 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:46,680 Speaker 3: Trump's entire immigration policy and symbolize it into the entity 911 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 3: of ICE and then focus your ire on ICE. Today. 912 00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,920 Speaker 3: When they say abolish ICE, they mean it quite literally 913 00:50:57,239 --> 00:50:59,800 Speaker 3: that it is a rogue agency that is whose agents 914 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:02,520 Speaker 3: are doing terrible things on the streets and it needs 915 00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:05,960 Speaker 3: to be broken up. And it's enforcement mechanisms distributed to 916 00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:10,360 Speaker 3: agencies that are not rogue. So it's gone from symbolic 917 00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:14,279 Speaker 3: to like literal like people. So when and now when 918 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 3: you poll, yeah, should you abolishized American people? It's very 919 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,439 Speaker 3: close and it's within the margin of error, but it's 920 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:24,120 Speaker 3: gone up. There's a plurality at least that say yes, 921 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 3: actually abolish ICE and Democrats. 922 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 5: It's increasing with Democrats as well. But this is sort 923 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 5: of exactly it's a majority of Democrats. Yeah, but this 924 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:34,480 Speaker 5: is exactly kind of what I was like remembering back 925 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:38,920 Speaker 5: from Trump One is that it's similar to mass deportations. 926 00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:41,520 Speaker 5: So you say you want mass deportations, and then here's 927 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,839 Speaker 5: what mass deportations look like in practice from the Trump administration. 928 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:48,040 Speaker 5: And people start disapproving of as handling of immigration. And 929 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:51,440 Speaker 5: then if your Dems you say, okay, we have support 930 00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:54,360 Speaker 5: for from our party, there's a plurality of Americans for 931 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,840 Speaker 5: abolish ICE. Here's what abolish ICE looks like in practice, 932 00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:00,880 Speaker 5: or here's what from the first term, we have support 933 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 5: for ending Trump's cruel and humane immigration policy. And here's 934 00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 5: what it looks like in practice. It looks like the 935 00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:08,640 Speaker 5: Biden administration immigration policy. 936 00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:09,719 Speaker 4: That's what I. 937 00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:12,399 Speaker 5: Was saying, is that the tug of war there is 938 00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:15,080 Speaker 5: it's not and I know Dems are kind of coping 939 00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:16,919 Speaker 5: with that right now. And Third Way is out there 940 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:21,799 Speaker 5: upset about the hashtag abolish Ice. But the politics and 941 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:25,080 Speaker 5: the policy are obviously sometimes separate. 942 00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:31,759 Speaker 3: A key difference here. Trump and ICE have lost. The 943 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 3: cops in Minnesota, like, sit down, buckle up, because this 944 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 3: is an utterly striking press conference from police chiefs in 945 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:47,759 Speaker 3: Minnesota telling Ice, well, listen to them. 946 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:48,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, let's get to this. 947 00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:53,320 Speaker 13: Recently, as the last two weeks, we as law enforcement 948 00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:58,919 Speaker 13: community have been receiving endless complaints about civil rights violations 949 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:05,440 Speaker 13: and our streets from US citizens. What we're hearing is 950 00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 13: they're being stopped in traffic stops or on the street 951 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:13,719 Speaker 13: with no cause and being forced to demand paperwork to 952 00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:18,520 Speaker 13: determine if they are here legally. As this went on 953 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 13: over the past two weeks, we started hearing from our 954 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:24,960 Speaker 13: police officers the same complaints as they fell victim to 955 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:29,840 Speaker 13: this while off duty. Every one of these individuals is 956 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:32,839 Speaker 13: a person of color who has had this happen to them. 957 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:38,120 Speaker 13: In Brooklyn Park. One particular officer that shared her story 958 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 13: with me was stopped as she passed ice going down 959 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:46,520 Speaker 13: the roadway. When they boxed her in. They demanded her paperwork, 960 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:48,719 Speaker 13: of which she's a US citizen and clearly would not 961 00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:52,320 Speaker 13: have any paperwork. When she became concerned about the rhetoric 962 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 13: and the way she was being treated, she pulled out 963 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:57,960 Speaker 13: her phone and an attempt to record the incident. The 964 00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 13: phone was knocked out of her hands prevented her from 965 00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:06,400 Speaker 13: recording it. The officer had their guns drawn during this interaction, 966 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,399 Speaker 13: and after the officer became so concerned, they were forced 967 00:54:11,400 --> 00:54:13,840 Speaker 13: to identify themselves as a brooken pork police officer in 968 00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:17,359 Speaker 13: hopes of slowing the incident and de escalating the incident down. 969 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 13: The agents then immediately left after hearing this, making no 970 00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:25,160 Speaker 13: other comments, no other apologies, just got in their vehicles 971 00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:27,759 Speaker 13: and left. I wish I could tell you that this 972 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:30,799 Speaker 13: was an isolated instant. In fact, many of the chiefs 973 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:34,440 Speaker 13: standing behind me have similar instants with their off duty officers. 974 00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:35,279 Speaker 6: If it is. 975 00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:38,080 Speaker 13: Happening to our officers, it pains me to think how 976 00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 13: many of our community members are falling victim to this 977 00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:42,520 Speaker 13: every day. 978 00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:47,239 Speaker 3: And that last line, I think is really important that 979 00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:54,040 Speaker 3: police chief found empathy with the citizens and the everyday 980 00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 3: people of the area said he said, If imagine if 981 00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:02,839 Speaker 3: it's happening to us cops, God only knows what they're 982 00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 3: doing to regular people. Well, we do know, because people 983 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 3: like Will Stancel and so many others are out there 984 00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:11,160 Speaker 3: filming it letting us know. 985 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:15,000 Speaker 5: Okay, people like Will's stancil. So to be clear, this 986 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:18,239 Speaker 5: is three in law enforcement officers. You saw them on 987 00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:20,480 Speaker 5: your screen. This is the chief of the Brooklyn Park 988 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:24,400 Speaker 5: Police Department, the Saint Paul Police chief, and then also 989 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:27,160 Speaker 5: the Hennepin County sheriff. So that's who you saw on 990 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:29,520 Speaker 5: the screen just now, and that's who you realized. 991 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:31,440 Speaker 3: A big dogs in that area. 992 00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:34,680 Speaker 4: This is you know, you heard this quote. 993 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:36,360 Speaker 5: If it is happening to our officers, it pains me 994 00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 5: to think of how many of our community members are 995 00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:39,360 Speaker 5: falling victim to this every. 996 00:55:39,239 --> 00:55:40,360 Speaker 4: Day it has to stop. 997 00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:46,200 Speaker 5: And they go on at one point to say that 998 00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 5: they don't even necessarily want ICE gone out of the city, 999 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 5: they just want to find I think the quote is 1000 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 5: common ground. 1001 00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:55,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. They started that press commons. We didn't play 1002 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:59,000 Speaker 3: this part. They started by saying, we're all for what 1003 00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 3: ICE is doing. We have had respectful, collaborative working relationships 1004 00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 3: with ICE in the past. 1005 00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:08,960 Speaker 4: Although that's tougher if you're the Hunnaping County sheriff. 1006 00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:14,040 Speaker 3: Because yeah, so there are sanctuary policies that prevent them 1007 00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:19,480 Speaker 3: from uh turning over nonviolent undocumented people to ICE, but 1008 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 3: they're allowed to work together on you know, with violent 1009 00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:28,319 Speaker 3: criminals who are undocumented, uh and whatever you want to say, 1010 00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 3: Like these are these are cops who are saying that, 1011 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 3: like we look, we have a lot of respect for ICE. 1012 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:36,799 Speaker 3: We were not against the idea of immigration enforcement. But 1013 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:38,239 Speaker 3: there's a way to go about it, and there's a 1014 00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 3: way not to go about it, and you're doing the 1015 00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:43,600 Speaker 3: not the way to go about it. Watching ICE go 1016 00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:47,399 Speaker 3: around brutalizing people on an hourly basis has done more 1017 00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:52,240 Speaker 3: to I think, lift the public opinion of local police 1018 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:56,080 Speaker 3: forces than anything in decades. People are like, oh wow, Like, okay, 1019 00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:57,840 Speaker 3: I'm not here. I'm not going to be out of 1020 00:56:57,880 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 3: here marching, you know, for our police. But they're downright civilized. 1021 00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:06,839 Speaker 3: It creates a contrast, yes, like wow, it turns out 1022 00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:07,920 Speaker 3: it can be a lot worse. 1023 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 5: So let's look at Promila Giapaul, who says posted this 1024 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:16,480 Speaker 5: Washington Post article quote two men and niced attention say 1025 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:19,040 Speaker 5: they saw guards kill a fellow detainee. Now the Trump 1026 00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 5: administration is trying to deport the witnesses. This looks a 1027 00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:25,160 Speaker 5: lot like a cover up. We need an independent investigation. 1028 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 12: Now. 1029 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:28,800 Speaker 5: That's from Representative Giapaul. The piece is from the Washington Post. 1030 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:31,800 Speaker 5: Ran It's an interesting story from the Post. 1031 00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:32,320 Speaker 12: Uh. 1032 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:37,360 Speaker 5: The allegations are that Heraldo Luna's campos. 1033 00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:38,640 Speaker 3: At this what's the guy we covered last week? 1034 00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:44,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, and what's this detention facility east Montana? It's not 1035 00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:49,520 Speaker 5: actually in Montana, right, but that he quote I'm reading 1036 00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:53,040 Speaker 5: this was engaged in a struggle with guards before his death. 1037 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:54,160 Speaker 4: Flores. 1038 00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:57,040 Speaker 5: So this is Santos Jeses Flores, who is one of 1039 00:57:57,040 --> 00:57:59,400 Speaker 5: the witnesses Giapaul's referring to and in her post on 1040 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,479 Speaker 5: X quote claim peace all guards choking Luna's compos to death. 1041 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:07,840 Speaker 3: The story is interesting, sounds impossible because according to DHS, 1042 00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 3: he was trying to commit suicide, right, that's what they are, 1043 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:15,840 Speaker 3: and DHS officers intervened to try to save his life. 1044 00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:21,640 Speaker 3: Unfortunately they were unsuccessful and he committed suicide. So it 1045 00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:23,960 Speaker 3: couldn't be that there are witnesses that are telling a 1046 00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:27,280 Speaker 3: different story in the DHS, because DHS, whatever you want 1047 00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:30,000 Speaker 3: to say about them, they are at least honest narrators 1048 00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 3: of their own actions. 1049 00:58:31,920 --> 00:58:35,040 Speaker 4: Right, And one interesting point here is that's sarcasm. 1050 00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:39,720 Speaker 5: But one point is he the witnesses are saying, he 1051 00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 5: was claiming he needed medication, says he has asthma, but 1052 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:46,480 Speaker 5: his family doesn't seem to know that he has asthma, 1053 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:48,360 Speaker 5: doesn't seem to believe that he has asthma. But where 1054 00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:52,600 Speaker 5: this gets really tough for Ice is that a preliminary 1055 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:57,560 Speaker 5: autopsy came back and said that he died by strangulation. 1056 00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:02,000 Speaker 5: So that's where it's going to get for Ice as 1057 00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:05,880 Speaker 5: a pretty devastating. So this is on to the post. 1058 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 5: An employee of El Paso County's Office of the Medical 1059 00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:11,120 Speaker 5: Examiner had set in a recorded phone call that the 1060 00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:13,880 Speaker 5: office is likely to classify lunas compos death as a 1061 00:59:13,920 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 5: homicide subject to the results of a toxicology report. The 1062 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:19,880 Speaker 5: employee said a doctor there is quote listing the preliminary 1063 00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:23,200 Speaker 5: cause of death as asphyxia due to neck and chest compression, 1064 00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:26,439 Speaker 5: which means Luna's compost did not get enough oxygen because 1065 00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:29,480 Speaker 5: of pressure on his neck and chest. So if that holds, 1066 00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:31,880 Speaker 5: that's devastating for the ice narrative. 1067 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:36,640 Speaker 3: And yes, and fortunately for the country, we don't have 1068 00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:41,080 Speaker 3: to sit around and figure out how to create a 1069 00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:45,680 Speaker 3: system to adjudicate situations like this. We have one. We 1070 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:50,800 Speaker 3: charge people with crimes, we put them in front of 1071 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 3: a jury of her peers. You have witnesses who testify 1072 00:59:56,680 --> 01:00:00,760 Speaker 3: to what they saw, you have toxicology gist, and you 1073 01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:05,280 Speaker 3: have other doctors testify as to what they've seen. The 1074 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:08,560 Speaker 3: people charged can testify in their own defense if they wish, 1075 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,320 Speaker 3: or they have a Fifth Amendment right not to. And 1076 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:15,080 Speaker 3: because we care so much about this system, we even 1077 01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:17,920 Speaker 3: created a thing called a U visa, which if you 1078 01:00:18,040 --> 01:00:22,000 Speaker 3: are a witness to a crime in an ongoing investigation, 1079 01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:26,040 Speaker 3: you are entitled to what's called a you visa. And 1080 01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:29,840 Speaker 3: it's straightforward. If all you need is the certification from 1081 01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:32,840 Speaker 3: prosecutors that you're a witness to a crime, and you 1082 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:35,160 Speaker 3: get a temporary U visa which means you cannot be 1083 01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:41,280 Speaker 3: deported until the trial plays out. How is any of 1084 01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:45,680 Speaker 3: this complicated? Like you cannot deport the witness who contradicts 1085 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:50,560 Speaker 3: your claim that you did not kill this person like that. 1086 01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:56,160 Speaker 3: That is the most basic level of our justice system 1087 01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:57,480 Speaker 3: and an approach to these cases. 1088 01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:00,840 Speaker 5: So we can put the next em up on the screen. 1089 01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:03,280 Speaker 5: And this is from popular information. Jud legom. 1090 01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:06,800 Speaker 4: Ice has stopped paying for detaining medical treatment. 1091 01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:08,760 Speaker 3: Legom is October. 1092 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:12,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, legom is reporting quote ICE halted payments in October 1093 01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:15,000 Speaker 5: and the situation will persist for at least several more months. 1094 01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:16,240 Speaker 4: What do you make of this report? Ryan? 1095 01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:19,720 Speaker 3: They have, and we've talked about this in the mass, 1096 01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:24,760 Speaker 3: more money in their budget than they will ever be 1097 01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:28,520 Speaker 3: able to spend. They cannot hire enough people and buy 1098 01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 3: enough equipment to spend the amount of money that has 1099 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:36,560 Speaker 3: been appropriated to them. They their ICE's budget is greater 1100 01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:40,400 Speaker 3: than all but like five militaries in the world or 1101 01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:42,680 Speaker 3: something like that. Like that's how that's how much money 1102 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:46,920 Speaker 3: they have. This is not about not having the money 1103 01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:52,680 Speaker 3: to pay your third party medical providers. This is about 1104 01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:58,280 Speaker 3: a miserating and in some cases killing the people that 1105 01:01:58,320 --> 01:02:02,400 Speaker 3: are in your custody. There's no other way to see this. 1106 01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 4: So this is from LEGOM. 1107 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:07,120 Speaker 5: He said ices failure to pay his bills for months 1108 01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:10,960 Speaker 5: has costed some medical providers to deny services to ICE detainees. 1109 01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:12,960 Speaker 5: So that's it's it's not just a matter of the 1110 01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:16,000 Speaker 5: payments haven't been made, is that the payments aren't being made. 1111 01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:20,640 Speaker 5: To Ryan's point, quote administration source who requested anonymity because 1112 01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:22,400 Speaker 5: they were not authorized to speak to the press hold 1113 01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:23,280 Speaker 5: popular information. 1114 01:02:23,840 --> 01:02:27,800 Speaker 4: Uh this bit end quote. In other cases, Legom. 1115 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:33,640 Speaker 5: Rights detainees have allegedly been denied essential medical care by ICE. Yeah, 1116 01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:38,200 Speaker 5: I mean that's a I haven't seen this report elsewhere 1117 01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:41,240 Speaker 5: you'll expect. I will expect this to get picked up 1118 01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:44,640 Speaker 5: and not just on you know, sub sacs, but like 1119 01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 5: you would expect this to be on NBC and a posts. 1120 01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:50,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, I could get as well sourced there. I think 1121 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:54,120 Speaker 3: could maybe get this. Hey, if they've paid the bills, 1122 01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 3: you know, post the invoice. 1123 01:02:56,960 --> 01:02:58,880 Speaker 4: It's not the risk of subseeck at all, by the way, either. 1124 01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:01,160 Speaker 5: That's just to say that it's I was trying to 1125 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:04,320 Speaker 5: say that, it's the momentum builds and it becomes a 1126 01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:07,400 Speaker 5: point where, yeah, but in the actually speaking of shade, 1127 01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:11,360 Speaker 5: in the shade of media reports, you can kind of 1128 01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:13,800 Speaker 5: get away with funny business, for sure. 1129 01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:16,520 Speaker 4: So that's that's I would expect that. 1130 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,920 Speaker 5: To become probably more of an issue for ICE, although 1131 01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:25,640 Speaker 5: when you know you have alleged illegal immigrants detained, then 1132 01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 5: it's not a particularly sympathetic group. It's just like the 1133 01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:33,080 Speaker 5: entire conversation about prisoners not being entirely sympathetic. It's it's 1134 01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:35,880 Speaker 5: politically not a huge winner for Democrats to make a 1135 01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:39,680 Speaker 5: big deal of ICE detainees. It's, you know, obviously a 1136 01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:42,880 Speaker 5: human rights issue, but it's not politically going to be 1137 01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:45,120 Speaker 5: a big winner, so maybe it doesn't end up ever 1138 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:48,600 Speaker 5: getting that momentum. They say these payments can't be processed 1139 01:03:48,760 --> 01:03:52,160 Speaker 5: until April. That's what it says on the website, until 1140 01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,200 Speaker 5: April thirtieth, twenty twenty six. Until then, like them, rights 1141 01:03:55,240 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 5: medical providers are instructed to hold all claims submissions insane. 1142 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:04,360 Speaker 3: One man that is standing up this and I the one, 1143 01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:07,800 Speaker 3: and I feel no sympathy for ICE because ICE knew 1144 01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:11,680 Speaker 3: ahead of time. They have an entire intelligence arm. That 1145 01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:15,760 Speaker 3: Will Stancel was in Minneapolis. If there's one thing everyone 1146 01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:17,520 Speaker 3: on the internet knows it is that Will Stancel is 1147 01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:24,200 Speaker 3: in Minneapolis. And ICE decided to make their stand in Minneapolis. 1148 01:04:23,600 --> 01:04:26,800 Speaker 4: Anyway despite the presence of Will. 1149 01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:32,720 Speaker 3: And look what they're getting. Somebody posted footage the other 1150 01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:37,200 Speaker 3: day of a Ice. Ice was like grabbing somebody.

Here's here's the great Will stance. 1158 01:04:55,360 --> 01:04:58,040 Speaker 8: I got six cars in Conway behind me, so who 1159 01:04:58,080 --> 01:04:59,160 Speaker 8: knows what's about having here? 1160 01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:04,320 Speaker 4: Keep going, buddy, it's my home, get out. 1161 01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:10,360 Speaker 6: I won't do that. 1162 01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:13,600 Speaker 8: I following You have a constitutional right. I know you 1163 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:14,200 Speaker 8: know where I live. 1164 01:05:14,240 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 6: I don't care you go home. 1165 01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:21,440 Speaker 4: Where are you from? 1166 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:23,360 Speaker 8: You arrest me for following, you may as well just 1167 01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:25,680 Speaker 8: do it because I'm gonna keep doing it. I have 1168 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 8: a right to do this or I don't. If I don't, 1169 01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:29,400 Speaker 8: you should arrest me right now. And if I do, 1170 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:31,880 Speaker 8: stop doing this weird crap. 1171 01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:36,400 Speaker 3: So if you don't kind of live in the bowels 1172 01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:41,920 Speaker 3: of the internet. Will Stancil is a liberal who first 1173 01:05:42,120 --> 01:05:46,640 Speaker 3: rose to kind of Twitter prominence fighting with leftists like 1174 01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:52,680 Speaker 3: yours truly attack me constantly. He then started going after 1175 01:05:52,760 --> 01:05:59,680 Speaker 3: these white nationalists and driving them as completely insane as 1176 01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:05,000 Speaker 3: he drove the left and saying earlier then the right 1177 01:06:05,120 --> 01:06:10,520 Speaker 3: made an AI. There's a series about out there. I 1178 01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:13,640 Speaker 3: watched one or two episodes. They're like, fairly well done, 1179 01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:18,040 Speaker 3: just as a as a piece of like entertainment. Shockingly, 1180 01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:23,240 Speaker 3: it's like the first like AI created series with Will Stancil, 1181 01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:26,600 Speaker 3: as like the like mock superhero. 1182 01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:27,800 Speaker 4: Character couldn't have happened to a better guy. 1183 01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:34,560 Speaker 3: He ran First Date House. I think Minnesota lost regrettably. 1184 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:38,480 Speaker 3: But whatever you can say about him, he is not 1185 01:06:38,720 --> 01:06:40,320 Speaker 3: you can't say it doesn't put his money where his 1186 01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:45,000 Speaker 3: mouth is. He has been relentlessly tracking Ice around the city, 1187 01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:47,200 Speaker 3: and what he has said is that the reason it's 1188 01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:49,080 Speaker 3: so important to do this is not just to make 1189 01:06:49,120 --> 01:06:54,480 Speaker 3: a scene, but that when Ice grabs somebody, well he said, what, 1190 01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:56,600 Speaker 3: so he follows them all day long, so he has 1191 01:06:57,200 --> 01:06:59,400 Speaker 3: like a view of not just what they do when 1192 01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:01,360 Speaker 3: the crowds are but when the crowds are not around. 1193 01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:03,960 Speaker 3: What they do is, he says, they look for people 1194 01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 3: with darker skin who are by themselves. They pull over, 1195 01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:14,080 Speaker 3: grab them and put them in the van in a 1196 01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:18,439 Speaker 3: matter of seconds, and then they figure out from there 1197 01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:20,800 Speaker 3: at that point is this person a citizen? Are they not? 1198 01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 3: Did we arrest the wrong person? And so what Will 1199 01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:28,360 Speaker 3: said he and the other activists are doing is before 1200 01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:32,280 Speaker 3: they get the guy into the van, they'll shout or 1201 01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:37,120 Speaker 3: the woman, what is your name? Who are you? And 1202 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:42,160 Speaker 3: if you don't get their name, according to Will, then 1203 01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:46,160 Speaker 3: they're just gone, like they are just into the system. 1204 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:50,560 Speaker 3: And wherever they were going, the people are like, where's Steve. 1205 01:07:50,680 --> 01:07:53,160 Speaker 3: Like Steve said he'd be here by five, he's not here. 1206 01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:59,600 Speaker 3: Call the hospitals, call the police. Nothing. There's no calling 1207 01:07:59,640 --> 01:08:01,720 Speaker 3: ice and finding out like it's going to take you 1208 01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:06,520 Speaker 3: if you for a lot of these people, they're they're 1209 01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:12,240 Speaker 3: deported before you even figure out, uh, you know where 1210 01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:15,520 Speaker 3: they went. And so from Wills presidias, it's so important 1211 01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:17,400 Speaker 3: to follow them around just to like because if you 1212 01:08:17,400 --> 01:08:21,040 Speaker 3: don't catch that name, the person just disappears. And so 1213 01:08:21,680 --> 01:08:24,559 Speaker 3: despite all our beef in the past critical support to Will, 1214 01:08:25,080 --> 01:08:27,880 Speaker 3: he's uh, you know, he's really he's laying he's landing 1215 01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:31,519 Speaker 3: on the line, so good for him. It's that there's 1216 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:37,360 Speaker 3: nothing more American to me than like exercising your rights 1217 01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:39,880 Speaker 3: in the most obnoxious way possible. That is, that is 1218 01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:40,799 Speaker 3: truly American. 1219 01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:42,599 Speaker 5: But the background that you gave is actually I think 1220 01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:45,880 Speaker 5: helpful to the context here, which is that Stancil rose 1221 01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:49,080 Speaker 5: to prominence on like the online left or in the 1222 01:08:49,280 --> 01:08:51,400 Speaker 5: sphere of the online left because hating the left, he. 1223 01:08:51,360 --> 01:08:52,200 Speaker 4: Was going to left. 1224 01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:55,360 Speaker 5: And here you have Will Stancil himself in a car 1225 01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:58,880 Speaker 5: hawking doing the ice watch, that I think is in 1226 01:08:58,920 --> 01:09:01,760 Speaker 5: and of itself a statement on where the left is going. 1227 01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:04,760 Speaker 3: Towards uh right. And he would say there's he would 1228 01:09:04,760 --> 01:09:09,040 Speaker 3: say that there's nothing contradictory or inconsistent about that, that 1229 01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:14,120 Speaker 3: that he believes in a robust liberalism that is anti fascist, 1230 01:09:14,400 --> 01:09:17,000 Speaker 3: that stands up for all of the rights of the Constitution, 1231 01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:22,200 Speaker 3: and and that the left is sometimes not even supportive 1232 01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:24,000 Speaker 3: of some of those rights that are in the Constitution. 1233 01:09:24,439 --> 01:09:28,760 Speaker 3: And also they're an electoral liability because there are you know, 1234 01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:31,559 Speaker 3: nobody likes them and you can, you know, lump the 1235 01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:33,960 Speaker 3: Democratic Party in with the far left and it hurts them. 1236 01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:36,559 Speaker 3: Like that's his, that's his, that's his view on this. 1237 01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:40,120 Speaker 3: But you know, he has he has hated the right 1238 01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:45,240 Speaker 3: and what it stands for passionately since ever since I've 1239 01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:47,720 Speaker 3: known him. He just he just kind of thought the 1240 01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:52,120 Speaker 3: left was an obstacle to him fighting the right. But yeah, 1241 01:09:52,160 --> 01:09:56,719 Speaker 3: here he is man like, a man of the people, 1242 01:09:56,800 --> 01:09:59,000 Speaker 3: a man of the people in his in his hana 1243 01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:04,000 Speaker 3: fit ripping around Minneapolis. Just he's not letting these guys 1244 01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:04,439 Speaker 3: get away. 1245 01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:07,200 Speaker 5: So we could put the next moment up and this 1246 01:10:07,240 --> 01:10:11,400 Speaker 5: in New York Times report from Miami finding that a 1247 01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:15,439 Speaker 5: record number of Cubans have been deported. Cubans in Florida 1248 01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:18,080 Speaker 5: have been deported quote to their shot. Cubans of Florida 1249 01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 5: are being deported in record numbers. Now, to be fair, 1250 01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:24,839 Speaker 5: the repatriation under Donald Trump is like sixteen hundred Cubans. 1251 01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:27,439 Speaker 5: That's according to the Cuban government in twenty twenty five. 1252 01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:31,400 Speaker 5: But even that sixteen hundred number is quote double the 1253 01:10:31,479 --> 01:10:34,200 Speaker 5: number of Cubans who were repatriated in twenty twenty four, 1254 01:10:34,280 --> 01:10:39,559 Speaker 5: there was a big wave of Cubans going through, like 1255 01:10:39,640 --> 01:10:43,400 Speaker 5: flying to Venezuela, going up through the Darien Gap up 1256 01:10:43,400 --> 01:10:45,599 Speaker 5: through Mexico. I talked to a couple of them who 1257 01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:50,679 Speaker 5: had done this after the July protests. Yeah, yeah, after 1258 01:10:50,720 --> 01:10:55,679 Speaker 5: the July what was the July eleventh protest? Yeah, right, yeah, exactly, 1259 01:10:55,760 --> 01:10:57,840 Speaker 5: So getting on flights that costs a ton of money, 1260 01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:00,680 Speaker 5: if I'm remembering correctly. When the people I talked to 1261 01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:04,160 Speaker 5: you said it was like eleven grand for the whole thing. 1262 01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:06,519 Speaker 4: And not a like luxurious trip at all. 1263 01:11:06,560 --> 01:11:08,439 Speaker 5: It's like eleven grand to make your way through the 1264 01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:11,280 Speaker 5: dairy and gap and sit at the border in shelters 1265 01:11:11,600 --> 01:11:14,840 Speaker 5: for months just hoping you could get in. But that's 1266 01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:19,960 Speaker 5: where for Republicans, traditionally it's been you could just touch 1267 01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:20,920 Speaker 5: American soil. 1268 01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:24,920 Speaker 3: And for Cuban, yeah, and Venezuelan for Thatanah and Venezuelan. 1269 01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:26,200 Speaker 4: But that's different. 1270 01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:28,640 Speaker 5: Now there was again a big, big, big wave of 1271 01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:33,280 Speaker 5: Cuban and Venezuelan immigration, especially Cubans after twenty twenty one. 1272 01:11:33,720 --> 01:11:36,679 Speaker 5: So that's what this is in reaction to. But definitely 1273 01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:40,879 Speaker 5: a changed, changed time right now. 1274 01:11:41,080 --> 01:11:45,840 Speaker 3: For immigration and none of this had to happen, Like 1275 01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:50,120 Speaker 3: Obama normalized relations with Cuba in twenty fifteen, Like we 1276 01:11:50,160 --> 01:11:51,880 Speaker 3: could have just we could have just left it at that. 1277 01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:55,120 Speaker 3: Obama was like, Okay, we've been doing this fifty year embargo, 1278 01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:57,040 Speaker 3: Like enough, Like what are we going to do. We're 1279 01:11:57,080 --> 01:12:00,280 Speaker 3: not threatened by Cuba. They're not going to invade. 1280 01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:02,439 Speaker 5: The Cuban government could have also not beaten people in 1281 01:12:02,479 --> 01:12:04,000 Speaker 5: the streets in twenty twenty one. 1282 01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:06,880 Speaker 3: Well, one of the people I've talked to American government 1283 01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:09,680 Speaker 3: could not beat people in the streets to day, Like yeah, I. 1284 01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:12,640 Speaker 4: Mean that doesn't have anything to do with yes, both true, yes, yes. 1285 01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:17,600 Speaker 3: But right, Like there's also a relationship between sanctions and 1286 01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:23,240 Speaker 3: embargo and liberalization. You the more pressure you put on 1287 01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:27,680 Speaker 3: a government, the less room they have to engage in 1288 01:12:27,720 --> 01:12:31,400 Speaker 3: political reforms. That doesn't justify the crackdown, but it is, 1289 01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:36,600 Speaker 3: it's a factor in it if you want. And the 1290 01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 3: same is true with like liberalizing and opening up markets 1291 01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:43,080 Speaker 3: more in QBE. But you know that would probably that 1292 01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:47,960 Speaker 3: would that would create some problems with people who are 1293 01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:52,040 Speaker 3: getting supports in the first couple of weeks, maybe even months, 1294 01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:55,960 Speaker 3: and so you need some political cushion in order to 1295 01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:58,439 Speaker 3: pull off those reforms. But if you don't have any 1296 01:12:58,439 --> 01:13:01,439 Speaker 3: political cushion, you're just gonna keep the same sclorotic system 1297 01:13:01,479 --> 01:13:05,880 Speaker 3: going forever. So as soon as Trump came in, he 1298 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:12,479 Speaker 3: reinstituted sanctions in embargo. Biden was awful on it, and 1299 01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:15,479 Speaker 3: Trump has been even worse since then. And you've had 1300 01:13:15,680 --> 01:13:20,760 Speaker 3: something like a third of the population leave in just 1301 01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:24,759 Speaker 3: like five years or so. If you look at there 1302 01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:30,400 Speaker 3: was there were some protests after a Duro's ouster. If 1303 01:13:30,400 --> 01:13:33,320 Speaker 3: you looked at footage of the crowds, very few of 1304 01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:37,559 Speaker 3: your young people in the crowd, anybody in their twenties, thirties, 1305 01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:42,640 Speaker 3: late teens, has that can and that's you know, and 1306 01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:45,280 Speaker 3: they're allowed, you're allowed to leave. So they just leave. 1307 01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:50,280 Speaker 3: And so they've and only maybe ten fifteen percent of 1308 01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:52,760 Speaker 3: coming to the US, like they're flooding South America, North 1309 01:13:52,720 --> 01:13:54,240 Speaker 3: America and Central America as well. 1310 01:13:55,040 --> 01:13:57,360 Speaker 5: To the point where there's a similar discourse on immigration 1311 01:13:57,439 --> 01:13:59,759 Speaker 5: and places in Chile and other South America. 1312 01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:02,960 Speaker 3: Good yeah, yeah, And Columbia's stacked in that as well 1313 01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:07,200 Speaker 3: as two right, yes, And it didn't have to happen. 1314 01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:10,320 Speaker 3: And we can talk about iron too. Like we had 1315 01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:12,800 Speaker 3: the nuclear deal, Like, what are we doing? Why are 1316 01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:14,880 Speaker 3: we doing all this? What are we doing this for? 1317 01:14:15,360 --> 01:14:17,960 Speaker 4: Let's take a look here at C six, this is 1318 01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:19,720 Speaker 4: a sixty minutes report. 1319 01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:22,120 Speaker 3: Speaking of DHS and its accuracy. 1320 01:14:22,320 --> 01:14:25,200 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, let's go ahead and roll this. 1321 01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:27,639 Speaker 3: It's right in the after show, not the real show. 1322 01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:29,719 Speaker 5: So this is yeah, So I'll just read the tweek 1323 01:14:29,760 --> 01:14:32,360 Speaker 5: before I rolled the video sixty minutes posted Chris Parente, 1324 01:14:32,479 --> 01:14:34,439 Speaker 5: lawyer for Chicago woman who was shot by a Border 1325 01:14:34,439 --> 01:14:37,240 Speaker 5: Patrol agent in October, showed sixty minutes new video evidence 1326 01:14:37,320 --> 01:14:39,960 Speaker 5: that's that, he says, contradicts to claim that the agents 1327 01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:42,679 Speaker 5: were quote boxed in by ten cars. Quote I don't 1328 01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:45,000 Speaker 5: see ten people, and I certainly don't see anybody in 1329 01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:47,559 Speaker 5: front of him. Parente said, let's roll the clip. 1330 01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:51,240 Speaker 14: DHS released a statement saying that their agents were boxed 1331 01:14:51,280 --> 01:14:54,600 Speaker 14: in by ten cars they couldn't move. What does the 1332 01:14:54,680 --> 01:14:58,480 Speaker 14: video that you obtained from a surveillance camera show. 1333 01:14:58,520 --> 01:15:00,400 Speaker 15: There was nobody in front of this eight If he 1334 01:15:00,479 --> 01:15:02,680 Speaker 15: simply wanted to move forward on the street in the 1335 01:15:02,680 --> 01:15:05,519 Speaker 15: direction he was going, he could have continued on. It 1336 01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:07,599 Speaker 15: shows there's nobody to the left of his vehicle. 1337 01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:10,519 Speaker 14: Why don't you play the video as you've got it 1338 01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:12,400 Speaker 14: set up and kind of walk me through what we see. 1339 01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:14,840 Speaker 15: So this construction barrier that you see here, that is 1340 01:15:14,880 --> 01:15:16,920 Speaker 15: where eventually you're going to see the hood of the 1341 01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:20,400 Speaker 15: agent's car. Stop, you see the front, You see the front, 1342 01:15:20,439 --> 01:15:22,760 Speaker 15: that is the front of the agent's car. The quote 1343 01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:25,439 Speaker 15: ramming has just happened, and right now the agent is 1344 01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:27,920 Speaker 15: opening his driver's side door. He's jumping out, and within 1345 01:15:27,960 --> 01:15:30,800 Speaker 15: two seconds, according to a stopwatch, he's shooting his gun 1346 01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:34,559 Speaker 15: five times. So now you'll see Merrimar's car sort of 1347 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:37,080 Speaker 15: come out of bend, so she's in the far left lane. 1348 01:15:37,240 --> 01:15:39,240 Speaker 15: She goes towards the curb, away from the agents, and 1349 01:15:39,240 --> 01:15:39,840 Speaker 15: then comes back. 1350 01:15:40,560 --> 01:15:42,799 Speaker 14: No evidence of ten people a caravan anywhere. 1351 01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:44,840 Speaker 15: I don't see ten people, and I certainly don't see 1352 01:15:44,840 --> 01:15:46,720 Speaker 15: anybody in the lane in front of him. Why can 1353 01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:47,559 Speaker 15: he not go forward? 1354 01:15:48,080 --> 01:15:52,160 Speaker 16: Court proceedings also uncovered text messages from agent Xem. In 1355 01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:55,599 Speaker 16: one exchange with fellow agents, he appeared to brag about 1356 01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:59,200 Speaker 16: the shooting, writing quote, I fired five rounds and she 1357 01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:03,320 Speaker 16: had seven holes. Put that in your book, boys. Body 1358 01:16:03,320 --> 01:16:06,679 Speaker 16: camera footage discussed in court also revealed that an agent 1359 01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:11,160 Speaker 16: in Exem's car, while holding a weapon, said do something bitch. 1360 01:16:11,520 --> 01:16:14,160 Speaker 16: Seconds later, agent Exem opened fire. 1361 01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:19,240 Speaker 5: So that is in reference to the case of Marmar Martinez. 1362 01:16:19,439 --> 01:16:23,880 Speaker 5: This is from October fourth and the run up to it. 1363 01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:27,240 Speaker 5: I'm reading again from the sixty minutes report. She said 1364 01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:30,280 Speaker 5: she noticed unusual vehicle on the road when she was 1365 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:32,160 Speaker 5: driving to church. It had no plates, a light under 1366 01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:34,080 Speaker 5: the windshield with a lift logo, and a driver that 1367 01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:37,960 Speaker 5: was wearing green camel camouflage. Martinez, an American citizen, honked 1368 01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:40,840 Speaker 5: her horn and shotted La migra, Spanish word used among 1369 01:16:40,840 --> 01:16:44,439 Speaker 5: members of Latino community to identify immigration officers. She said 1370 01:16:44,479 --> 01:16:47,000 Speaker 5: she followed the car for about twenty minutes, alerting nearby 1371 01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:50,960 Speaker 5: residents by honking and shouting while live streaming on Facebook. 1372 01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:54,240 Speaker 5: And that's when things took a dramatic turn. And that's 1373 01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:56,559 Speaker 5: where the video picked up r in Yeah. 1374 01:16:56,400 --> 01:16:59,040 Speaker 3: And so then according to DHS, I think it was 1375 01:16:59,040 --> 01:17:06,080 Speaker 3: Trish McLaughlin's again. Ten cars boxed in this agent and 1376 01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:13,040 Speaker 3: rammed the vehicle completely fabricated. The guy just got out. 1377 01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:19,519 Speaker 3: So this is of the two high profile cases of 1378 01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:23,639 Speaker 3: women being shot in their cars by ICE agents. Both 1379 01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:28,599 Speaker 3: have been called the B word. Renee Good was called 1380 01:17:28,600 --> 01:17:31,040 Speaker 3: that after she was killed, although she was still alive 1381 01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:34,040 Speaker 3: before they you know, she was shot a pulse for 1382 01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:36,960 Speaker 3: another eight minutes, but they prevented her from getting medical treatment. 1383 01:17:37,320 --> 01:17:40,840 Speaker 3: This woman was called it right before he tried to 1384 01:17:40,920 --> 01:17:44,800 Speaker 3: kill her and then brags that he shot her five 1385 01:17:44,840 --> 01:17:48,160 Speaker 3: times and put quote seven holes in her. That's because 1386 01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:52,760 Speaker 3: she was probably instinctively covering, protecting herself with her with 1387 01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:56,960 Speaker 3: her bare hands. So congratulations, you're tough guy. You shot 1388 01:17:56,960 --> 01:17:59,120 Speaker 3: an unarmed woman who tried to protect herself with her 1389 01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:01,880 Speaker 3: bare hands, and you managed to put a bullet through 1390 01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:06,960 Speaker 3: her arm that also then went into her body, and 1391 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:10,679 Speaker 3: then she managed to live at like an absolute, absolute miracle. 1392 01:18:10,840 --> 01:18:12,920 Speaker 5: She did actually have a gun in her purse, but 1393 01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:15,400 Speaker 5: she wasn't able to get to it. Yeah, no, no, 1394 01:18:15,479 --> 01:18:18,800 Speaker 5: that's like, she did actually have a gun in her purse. 1395 01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:20,720 Speaker 5: She said she wasn't able to get to it in time, 1396 01:18:20,760 --> 01:18:22,040 Speaker 5: but she has it because she lives on the South 1397 01:18:22,040 --> 01:18:23,519 Speaker 5: Side of Chicago, is what she said. 1398 01:18:24,120 --> 01:18:27,200 Speaker 3: So one of these cops, and I want to I'm 1399 01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:29,920 Speaker 3: curious how y'all are going to respond to this. One 1400 01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:32,680 Speaker 3: of these cops is going to get shot. 1401 01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:34,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's absolutely true. And it's that's. 1402 01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:37,840 Speaker 3: Because and it will be in self defense. And then 1403 01:18:38,320 --> 01:18:41,479 Speaker 3: and then where's the back of the blue versus the 1404 01:18:41,479 --> 01:18:43,720 Speaker 3: standard ground types? How are you going to handle that? 1405 01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:45,880 Speaker 5: This is what's frustrating to me because one of the 1406 01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:48,320 Speaker 5: things that we disagree on, and I would certainly disagree 1407 01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:51,479 Speaker 5: with Martinez on this is following Ice agents with your 1408 01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:57,639 Speaker 5: car for twenty minutes and honking incessantly is interfering with 1409 01:18:57,800 --> 01:18:59,960 Speaker 5: their ability to do their job. That's an entire point 1410 01:19:00,160 --> 01:19:03,160 Speaker 5: of the protest civil disobedience. If you're you know, I 1411 01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:06,120 Speaker 5: don't think that necessarily crosses into breaking the law, but 1412 01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:08,759 Speaker 5: it's not helping the situation. 1413 01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:09,320 Speaker 4: Obviously. 1414 01:19:09,320 --> 01:19:11,960 Speaker 5: The goal of it is to ensure that people don't 1415 01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:15,880 Speaker 5: get picked up potentially American citizens, I get it. 1416 01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:16,679 Speaker 4: Whatever else. 1417 01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:18,760 Speaker 5: I think a lot of this comes from people who 1418 01:19:18,880 --> 01:19:24,120 Speaker 5: just blankly want or categorically want pathway decizenship for people 1419 01:19:24,120 --> 01:19:26,559 Speaker 5: who are here. They don't want, you know, non violent 1420 01:19:26,560 --> 01:19:31,240 Speaker 5: criminals to be deported, and yeah, I completely disagree with that, 1421 01:19:31,680 --> 01:19:34,120 Speaker 5: and most of the American people completely disagree with that. 1422 01:19:34,520 --> 01:19:36,800 Speaker 5: So if you want to get arrested as an active 1423 01:19:36,840 --> 01:19:40,080 Speaker 5: civil disobedience, own it. Say, I'm getting arrested as an 1424 01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:43,840 Speaker 5: active size. It's not a crime, No, not yet, no, no, 1425 01:19:43,840 --> 01:19:45,439 Speaker 5: not yet. But that's what I'm saying. It like it's 1426 01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:48,879 Speaker 5: it's building to something that we already saw what happened 1427 01:19:48,960 --> 01:19:49,760 Speaker 5: with Renee Good. 1428 01:19:50,280 --> 01:19:52,040 Speaker 4: It's building to something that I think is going to 1429 01:19:52,080 --> 01:19:53,120 Speaker 4: get even uglier. 1430 01:19:53,400 --> 01:19:56,080 Speaker 5: And I think everybody's senses and everybody is kind of 1431 01:19:56,160 --> 01:19:58,599 Speaker 5: unsettled by that. And it's I'm not at all just 1432 01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:02,479 Speaker 5: blaming h Ice watchers and saying when you're looking at 1433 01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:05,680 Speaker 5: as we just saw those clips of cops, cops in 1434 01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:08,880 Speaker 5: Minneapolis saying they want to come back to a place 1435 01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:13,720 Speaker 5: of common ground with Ice, it's yeah, I think it's 1436 01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:17,439 Speaker 5: we're seeing the beginning of something that could get even worse. 1437 01:20:17,479 --> 01:20:20,360 Speaker 3: Well, I hope we're seeing the end of it. Think 1438 01:20:20,400 --> 01:20:22,360 Speaker 3: about what you learn in elementary school about what the 1439 01:20:22,479 --> 01:20:28,360 Speaker 3: United States is. The consent of the governed is required 1440 01:20:29,080 --> 01:20:32,840 Speaker 3: for the government to have legitimacy, Like that is the 1441 01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:36,200 Speaker 3: that is the basis on which we overthrew the British 1442 01:20:37,080 --> 01:20:40,200 Speaker 3: that is the basis on which we built the United States. 1443 01:20:39,800 --> 01:20:43,000 Speaker 3: The consent of the government of the people, by the people, 1444 01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:46,920 Speaker 3: for the people, you know who doesn't get horns honked 1445 01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:49,400 Speaker 3: at them and constantly harassed walking up and down the street, 1446 01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:52,000 Speaker 3: even though they've complained about they don't get enough respect 1447 01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:58,519 Speaker 3: local police forces. Cops who drive through a neighborhood or 1448 01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:01,920 Speaker 3: are walking a beat are not surrounded by groups of 1449 01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:05,240 Speaker 3: people honking at them and telling them to go home. 1450 01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:07,240 Speaker 4: I think they would be if they were deporting people, 1451 01:21:07,960 --> 01:21:08,400 Speaker 4: which is. 1452 01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:10,800 Speaker 3: What they would be if they were doing things that 1453 01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:14,679 Speaker 3: the governed do not consent to. So ICE has lost 1454 01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:18,000 Speaker 3: the people it is. It is not the people's fault. 1455 01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:22,080 Speaker 3: The people were here first. ICE is a government agency 1456 01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:27,320 Speaker 3: that is tru that is coming into these neighborhoods. They 1457 01:21:27,360 --> 01:21:31,720 Speaker 3: need to win over the community. We're here first. And 1458 01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:36,120 Speaker 3: also we are the we like we are the ones 1459 01:21:36,280 --> 01:21:41,080 Speaker 3: that govern ourselves in a democracy. And if you want 1460 01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:44,240 Speaker 3: to you know, if you want to be a law 1461 01:21:44,360 --> 01:21:48,560 Speaker 3: enforcement agency in a democracy, you need the support of 1462 01:21:48,600 --> 01:21:51,760 Speaker 3: the people. You can't do this is not Vietnam. We're 1463 01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:53,600 Speaker 3: going to go in just mow down the villagers and 1464 01:21:53,640 --> 01:21:56,160 Speaker 3: burn the village in order to save it, Like, you 1465 01:21:56,200 --> 01:21:58,719 Speaker 3: have to actually win hearts and minds, not the fake way. 1466 01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:01,800 Speaker 5: Well yeah, I mean, and then I think actors should 1467 01:22:01,840 --> 01:22:05,280 Speaker 5: also police themselves. When people are throwing stuff at the 1468 01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:08,280 Speaker 5: ice officers and touching the ice officers, staying in front 1469 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:09,040 Speaker 5: of cars. 1470 01:22:08,840 --> 01:22:10,280 Speaker 3: Don't do crimes, don't assault them. 1471 01:22:10,479 --> 01:22:12,760 Speaker 5: Right, Well, I just I say that because I do 1472 01:22:12,960 --> 01:22:16,160 Speaker 5: genuinely worry about things getting even worse and more dangerous. 1473 01:22:16,200 --> 01:22:17,479 Speaker 4: I think we all worry about that. 1474 01:22:18,040 --> 01:22:20,320 Speaker 5: My sense is that you to your point about is 1475 01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:24,040 Speaker 5: this the end of a bad situation, I just think 1476 01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:25,800 Speaker 5: it's the opposite. I think it's it feels to me 1477 01:22:25,840 --> 01:22:28,600 Speaker 5: like something is continuing to build, because. 1478 01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:31,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know, I just have a bad feeling 1479 01:22:31,720 --> 01:22:32,639 Speaker 4: about it might be. 1480 01:22:32,720 --> 01:22:35,840 Speaker 3: But you know, there's twenty thousand of them, there's more 1481 01:22:35,880 --> 01:22:39,240 Speaker 3: than three hundred million of us. So they're going to 1482 01:22:39,320 --> 01:22:42,679 Speaker 3: have to If they insist on doing this by force 1483 01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:46,560 Speaker 3: rather than through consent, then yes, they're going to have 1484 01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:49,439 Speaker 3: to bring a lot more force. But I hope that 1485 01:22:49,439 --> 01:23:05,360 Speaker 3: they would try to go the consent route.
